Anyway just wanted to add a comment about caffeine..watch out for those energy drinks...they can really casue a caffeine overdose! I don't drink them very often, except I found a gurana drink from Brazil that is tasty and doesn't have tons of additives and gives a kick instead of tea or coffee.
I have to confess that I die from enjoyment inhaling the aroma in the coffee section at Zabars in NY.
